1. an instrument used to measure osmotic pressure
Usage: scientific

Examples

• The laboratory technician calibrated the osmometer before beginning the experiment.
• Scientists use an osmometer to study how solutions behave across membranes.
• The osmometer readings indicated high salt concentration in the sample.
• Medical researchers rely on osmometers to measure blood plasma osmolality.
• The new digital osmometer provides more accurate measurements than older models.
• Students learned to operate the osmometer during their chemistry lab session.
